    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site.

Let's try this out everyone.

I am putting up a list of some of the more common leopard gecko morphs on the market just to get everyone's vote on what their favorite is. Also, please feel free to post any comments you want(let's stay civil, these are just opinions).

I have voted for Jungles because, well, they've always been my favorites. lol The sheer variability of pattern in these guys is awesome. When breeding them, you never get the same thing twice and you can never be 100% sure how they will turn out as adults(whether they end up heaviliy spotted or keep super bold striping like the ones Monte posted a little way down).

Anyway, let's have some fun and vote:)
 
I like striped

I don't know what it is about them - but I love them-thar stripes. But I love anything with a high, bold contrast. Even though I have some screamer hypo tangs - they never really tripped my trigger like boldly contrasted leos.

What's a leopard without spots, right?

Rob, you always seemed to have some bold stuff when you were into leos, didn't you. In fact, I swear that you once told me you were going to send some my way . . .???

Or was I just dreaming?

:beer:

Good poll Rob!! Thanks
 
Vote for Patternless here!

I don't know exactly what it is about a bright yellow neon Patternless Leopard, but they sure are sexy beasts if you ask me lol! I also am a real fan of the Pastels which I didn't see on the poll. I had one about 2 years ago with super stripe and was pastel as could be, every time I look at his pic (which I still keep) it makes me kick myself that I actually sold him. It's great to see that someone has voted for the ever becoming rare normal too. I must say though, I love all the Leopard morphs and hope to see more in the future. Take care all. BTW Monte those stripes are bold as bold gets no doubt! Mike

Monte,

yes sir I did indeed get some bold stuff out of my jungle projects(Tiger leos anyone? ;) ). And don't worry, you WILL have some of my bloodline coming your way, though it may be a while yet, I will take care of you as promised:) Also, just so you know, there is another local breeder here in Atlanta that acquired some of my breeding stock that is getting similar results to my tigers and bold jungles. If you want I will put you in touch with him or him in touch with you when he's got babies again.

And I agree with you 100%, high bold contrast all the way! That is why most hypos and hypo-tangs never caught on with me.

Mike, I apologize for not including the pastels. Guess they go up for Honorable Mention:) I also didn't include the Joe Blow's Bargain Super Giant Tangerine Black-spotted Claw-toed Blinking eyes morph either;) lol
 
such a difficult choice to make!

I love all of them but I guess if I had to pick from those you listed my fave (right now anyway :) is the Bell albino. They are sooo cool and different looking. I like my super hypo carrot tails almost equally as well. And I have a soft spot in my heart for patternless leos too. Hmmm I'd be in big trouble if I had to pick just one leo I could keep! You know, you can't have just one leopard gecko hehee.:D
 
The eyes have it.

I'd have to agree with Kelli.....hard to make a choice, but she got me hooked on Bell's ever since I bought one of her males. The eyes almost blend seemlessly with the body color. Sort of reminds me of an albino Burmese Python's eyes. I have to admit though, I also like the stripes too...(hint for Monte) I'd love to get a hold of a female to pair up with my male.

Look at me go...

Seems like I've migrated with everyone else here. Although, it does seem that I am a late arrival, as always.

I loveo my striped Leopard (and any, for that matter) about the same as all of my others, but, I think it looks awesome..like a racecar even.
 
Patternless albinos and tangerine carrot-tails are first on my list right now. But.... second place is all the rest of them, and believe me, second place isn't very far behind first, just barely 1/10 of a point diff. :)
 
oranger the better

tangerine albinos, Super Hypo Carrot Tails, Hybinos, snows, and GIANTS. theyall tie for first.

a tangerine giant hybino with a carrot tail would be the ultimate leopard gecko in my opinion.

matter of fact giant blazing blizzard would be nice too.
 
Purple is quite the stud now. LOL! He's nearly full grown and very different from when he was a baby. I'll have to take a new pictgure but here he again, this time at a couple-few months old. ;)

Hypo Carrot tail is my favorite, although I like the jungles too.

This is one of my animals, Vesta, I bought her from crestedgecko.com

This is the image of her from Garrick's web site that I have on my personal site to show what she looks like. I am so happy with her.

amazing....

i was curious about the results of this poll so i took a look and to my amazment the patternless took second place in this poll. wow. first of all let me just state that patternless albinos are nice. but patternless?

how is it that patternless even make the top ten? i find them to be ugly honestly. most of the time they are an awful brown and occasionly they turn a decent yellow color, they probably all carry genetics for kinked tails (i understand there is debate about weather or not its genetic, but answer me this: if its not why does it mostly occur in patternless and the sort?), and from what i seen they are mostly smaller animals.

id pick up a normal striped or reverse striped before id buy a patternless. any form of albino is nicer than a patternless, blizzards arent even on the poll but they definately rank much higher than the patternless in my opinion. snows, hypos, pastels, tangerines... all better looking with sturdier gene pools.

other than being half of the recipe for paternless albinos i dont see what all the hype is about.

maybe if this poll was to include more morphs like tangerine albinos and blizzards than the patternless wouldnt hold second place in this poll. either way im surprised that it recieved one vote let alone 15.
 
i like the pattern on her head. and it looks like shes got some tangerine developing on her back.
Click to expand...

I asked Garrick about her parents when I bought her. Her father was one of his origianl carrot-tails and her mother was a hypo tangerine.

She laid eggs this morning. I bred her with my high yellow morph male. Not sure about his parents so who knows what will happen.

Regards,

Terry
